In episode three of And Just Like That…, Carrie Bradshaw was finally reunited with a long-lost item from her ’90s wardrobe.
Back in season three of Sex and the City, in an episode titled “What Goes Around Comes Around,” Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) finds herself lost near Houston Street, but when she goes to ask a man for directions, she ends up with a gun pointed at her chest. The first thing the mugger asks for? Her purple sequins Fendi Baguette.
“Give me your bag,” the robber tells her, to which she replies, “It's a Baguette.” Relatively unfazed, the culprit runs away with the purse, some jewelry, and Carrie's favorite pair of strappy Manolo Blahnik sandals.
Though Carrie seemed mostly perturbed about the loss of her shoes, the bag itself was absolutely iconic. Launched in 1997, the Fendi Baguette became an instant classic, thanks in no small part for its regular appearances on Sex and the City. Parker even reprised her role as Carrie Bradshaw in a 2019 ad campaign for Fendi when the brand decided to relaunch the coveted style.
In the commercial, a group of trendy New York women is on the hunt for the exact purple sequined Baguette stolen off Carrie in the HBO series. Unfortunately, they are thwarted by Parker, who already purchased the bag from the store.
“Ma'am, I need that bag,” one of the women shouts at Carrie Bradshaw, who responds, “Oh, this isn't a bag. It's a Baguette.”
